How exercise & nutrition positively impact your mental well-being?
The world has matured well to understand that exercise and food habits have a sizeable effect on physical wellness, but we are still taking baby steps when relating them with mental wellness. Feeling low or having mood swings? Don't reach out to the chocolate bar or cheesecake but get up, move around, and dance a step or two to get yourself rid of feeling 'blue.'
How Nutrition Connects with Our Emotion
Food is the body's source of fuel (energy). Making sensible food choices that positively affect the functioning of our brain and, in turn, regulates our mood, is indispensable. High-nutrient foods rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, regulate the secretion of hormones such as serotonin that regulate mood, sleep, and pain levels. Research even shows that the bacteria in your gut impacts energy levels, degree of inflammation, and mood levels beyond monitoring digestion.
Upping the wellness quotient by eating more fruits and vegetables is not a redundant suggestion but has been backed by research, as well. Whereas, avoid self-imposed hazards of depression and anxiety by staying away from junk foods. Cut off processed foods, substitute them with nutrition-rich foods, and stay on a 'clean' diet, slowly reintroducing them step-by-step to observe how different you feel!
Stay Physically Fit to Achieve Mental Fitness
Exercising is for all, not just for the obese and overweight people to lose weight! Physical activity triggers better well-being—do a 10-minute brisk walk, and you would start advertising about enhanced mood, energy, and mental agility levels that exercising brings to our body.
Stay socially connected by exercising outdoors or doing group exercises to improve mood levels. Regular exercise stimulates hormones such as serotonin and endorphins that enhance mood, enthusiasm levels, and increase alertness.
Cycling, swimming, walking, dancing, gardening, and jogging are stress-busters that strongly protect us from anxiety, depression, and cognitive decline (in the older generation). Above all, you get a good night's sleep after a good day's exercise session, and your self-esteem levels stand where they ought to be—beyond the clouds where everyone can see.
